Oakey was a great full back no doubt, but it is a position we have been well served by over the years. Not sure he was better than Danny Thomas, Brian Borrows or Roland Nilsson. Bobby McDonald was a fantastic left back - bad move by Gordon Milne to freeze him out in favour of Harry Roberts in...

As it stands Chelsea face a transfer ban until the Summer of 2020, so new players for them.

As others have said we were bullied out of it, which has been the common denominator of most of our defeats this season. To an extent that is to be expected from such a young side, but it is still disappointing when it happens. Burge - 5 Generally ok, but another costly error. Not sure why he...

I haven't read through the 11 pages of replies so apologies if I am repeating points made, but the options are far too vague to allow an informed answer. I never supported the move to Northampton and refused to go there because I believed it was a move that wasn't necessary, and which was...

Very selective. In his last CWR commentary he praised MR for giving young players a chance, but I guess that doesn't fit neatly into your prejudices.

I've got a feeling there is that kind of rule in the Prem, but not so sure about EFL. If our capacity is 4,500 you have to think that we would sell that in season tickets alone if allowed to. I think we are obligated to offer something like 10% to away fans, and if say we had to do offer the...

Another issue if we were to play at Nuneaton, is that given their limited capacity, I would imagine the club would have little choice but to effectively double the price of season tickets & match tickets (if any were available).

I agree. If Stockdale had been in goal for the Gillingham game I suspect Willis would have got a call to clear the ball that led to their penalty. To be fair to Burge he has been decent enough this season, but he certainly isn't a commanding presence in goal.

Willis was outstanding, and nobody had a poor game. Walsall were awful though. Stockdale - 7.5 Sterling - 7.5 Willis - 9 Hyam - 8 Mason - 7.5 Thomas - 7.5 Kelly - 7.5 Bayliss - 8 Enobokhare - 7.5 Bakayoko - 8 Hiwula - 8

Unlike a few on here, I'm a fan of Doyle and what he brings to a team, but footballers earn such good money these days that testimonials seem a bit of an irrelevance given their wealth. That said I know some players use it as charitable event, and if he were to do that I would probably be more...

For me, Willis has been our best, most consistent player this season. Yes he made the error against Gillingham, but I can't think of many other goals that could be attributed to him this season. Alongside a bigger powerful centre half partner, his extra pace could easily allow him to play at...

It seems ironic that the most vehement posters on here calling for protests against the council or Wasps have often been the same people moaning like fuck about how futile direct action has been against SISU. While Wasps and the Council have an indirect interest in the fortunes of CCFC, it is...

My Dad regularly played squash against him around the late 70's/ early 80's & said he was a top bloke, albeit very competitive. My impression is that he's a fairly modest guy, who doesn't crave attention, and is fairly embarrassed when a big fuss is made of him. I really don't believe he has...

As has been said by few on here, nobody would boo Dublin now. I was at that game when he walked round the pitch to his commentary position and you could see he was taken aback at the applause he received, and if he did attend a legends day event he would be cheered as loudly as anyone. Don't...

At the time I thought Hiwula hit the ball at the keeper and then it rebounded back off him into the net, so I thought he was quite fortunate. Not seen it subsequently, but either way, let's hope it gets him some confidence in front of goal, as he has evidently been lacking it recently.

Good performance - we really need to be winning these games more comfortably though. Stockdale 7 Sterling 6 Willis 8 Hyam 7 Mason 6 Thomas 8 Kelly 7 Bayliss 6 Enobakhare 7 Hiwula 7 Bakayoko 6 Shipley 7

Didn't hear the pre match comments, but his comments during the match have told it as it is and been pretty supportive. On the MR/ Mcsheffrey relationship, didn't Robins take McSheffrey to Scunthorpe when he managed there?

Only time I've seen him was in Auto Trade game earlier in the season and he was a central midfielder, and looked a good one at that. Definitely wasn't a winger on that showing.

When Chaplin joined us it was with the reputation of being a finisher in the Ponticelli mode, but with more experience and a better all round game. All players miss chances, however good they are, but for yesterdays chance I would have expected a 'natural' goalscorer to be more balanced in...
